Materials:

• 6.5 mm K crochet hook 
• Super bulky/#6 weight yarn (The yarn shown is Honey Bunny from Hobbii in "Candy Floss" "Lilac" and "Lemon Curd."  I used very small amounts of this yarn, only a few yards of each color per egg)
• Tapestry Needle 
• Scissors 
• Tape measure
• Fiber Fill/Poly Fill (to stuff your egg you can also use yarn scraps, fabric scraps, or even cotton balls)

Sizing:

• 2.5 inches wide
• 3.5 inches tall
• 8 inch circumference

Pattern Notes:

• If adding a stripe to your egg, work rounds 1-2 in color A, then 3-4 in color B, then rounds 5-6 in color A again.

Instructions:

 

Ch 4, then join with a slip stitch in the chain furthest from the hook to make a ring.

Round 1: Ch 2, then work 11 hdc into the center of the ring.  Join to close round with a slip stitch.

Round 2: Ch 2, then *work a hdc into the first stitch.  Work 2 hdc into the next stitch.  Repeat from * around.  Join to close round with a slip stitch.

Round 3: Ch 2, then work a hdc into each stitch around.  Join to close round with a slip stitch.

Round 4: Ch 2, then work a hdc into each stitch around.  Join to close round with a slip stitch.

Round 5: Ch 2, then *work a hdc2tog across the first two stitches.  Repeat from * around.  Join to close round with a slip stitch.

Round 6: Ch 2, then *work a hdc2tog across the first two stitches.  Work a hdc into the next stitch.  Repeat from * around.  Join to close round with a slip stitch.

Fasten off leaving a long tail.  Stuff egg with poly fill or filling of your choice into the small hole at the top of the egg.  With a tapestry needle  and the tail, seam up the top and pull tightly to close hole shut.  Weave in any ends and you're finished!
